So here’s the thing… You said a “jackdaw is a crow.” Is it in the same family? Yes. No one’s arguing that. As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be “specific” like you said, then you shouldn’t either. They’re not the same thing. If you’re saying “crow family” you’re referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens. So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people “call the black ones crows?” Let’s get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It’s not one or the other, that’s not how taxonomy works. They’re both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that’s not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you’re okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you’d call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don’t. It’s okay to just admit you’re wrong, you know?
It’s a copypasta from, what I’m inferring, is before your time.
A man named Unidan became a beloved figure of the reddit community, akin to /u/Poem_For_Your_Sprog, fucking /u/shittymorph, etc. He would glide into threads, drop bird facts and then talk with the people who replied to his comments before fluttering away.
Fast forward to the jackdaw incident where he very incorrectly stated the paragraph above, and that’s about all I know besides his reddit fame imploded afterwards. I want to say there was more of him being a fucker to it, but I didn’t care enough to remember.
Lol, I had to make an assumption so I assumed what I thought would be least insulting. Either way - I’ve given you part of the story, Obi gave you the rest.

It feels like you set this up on purpose, lol.
Unidan?
I never said that though

It must be very old copypasta indeed to be before my time, I’m 42 lol

Are we sure that’s not a Crow, its beak looks pretty long for a Jackdaw
